Subject: [PATCH] x86, AMD: Correct align_va_addr documentation

From: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@....com>

dfb09f9b7ab0 ("x86, amd: Avoid cache aliasing penalties on AMD family
15h") introduced a kernel command line parameter called 'align_va_addr'
which still refers to arguments used in an earlier version of the patch
and which got changed without updating the documentation. Correct that
omission.
